We are adding a St. George sweatshirt to the school uniform option list. In lieu of the blue sweaters/vest purchased through Dennis Uniform, students may choose to wear the classic navy dragon sweatshirt instead. See the attached picture.
We are also selling the goldenrod t-shirts in all sizes with same dragon logo, yet in blue. These t-shirts can be worn to school regularly on Frist Fridays Spirit Days, field trips, and other school/parish events. We have sizes for all ages at https://saintgeorgeseattle.ejoinme.org/stgeorgemerch
Friday, April 7th is noon dismissal for K-8. We will have extended care as usual.

May this Holy week be a time of reflection on the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and his calling to each of us as his disciples. May the peace of Christ be will all of you.
